Answer Key / Explanation : (c) -

A(s)  B(g) + C (g) ;   = x= PB PC

                  P1        P1         x = P1(P1+P2)     …  (1)

D(s)  C(g) + E (g) ;   = y = PC. PB

                      P2        P2          y = (P1+P2)( P2) …  (2)

Adding (1) and (2)

x+y  =

Now total pressure

 = PC + PB + PE

         = (P1 + P2 )+ P1 + P2=2(P1 + P2 )

 = 2()
